Barely launched and already thriving, SpaceKap’s U.S. venture is off to a remarkable start. Since opening its Plattsburgh location in March 2025, the company has seen explosive growth, enough that it’s now expanding its team to meet surging demand across the United States.
Key Takeaways
- Nearly 750 inquiries came in through SpaceKap’s website in the months following the U.S. launch.
- Two new sales reps, Derrick Wolfe (East Coast) and Alan Patterson Jr. (Southern U.S.), joined to cover the expanding territory.
- Both report to Richard Smith, SpaceKap’s Director of Commercial Sales, to keep the rollout consistent and customer-focused.
How much demand has SpaceKap seen since launching in the U.S.?
Since May, nearly 750 inquiries have come in directly through the SpaceKap website. Plumbers, electricians, general contractors, and small to mid-sized businesses nationwide are showing interest in this transferable service unit. With its rugged, modular, fully transferable design, the SpaceKap product fills a long-standing gap in the American market.
“We knew the potential was there, but the scale of the response has exceeded our expectations,” says GM Étienne Bouchard.
Who joined SpaceKap’s U.S. sales team?
To support this momentum, SpaceKap welcomed two new sales representatives. Derrick Wolfe covers the East Coast, while Alan Patterson Jr. covers the Southern U.S. from Florida. This boots-on-the-ground approach lets SpaceKap meet clients face-to-face, showcase products firsthand, and build real customer relationships.
“With a physical presence, an active sales force, and a product tailored to the U.S. market, we’re in an excellent position to grow,” Bouchard adds. “These hires will help us connect directly with customers and introduce them to the value of SpaceKap, up close and personal.”
Before taking up their new roles, Derrick and Alan spent several days at the company’s head office, immersing themselves in SpaceKap’s operations. That hands-on experience gave them direct insight into the craftsmanship behind the fiberglass units: products known for durability, versatility, and precision assembly.

Why is the U.S. market such a big opportunity for SpaceKap?
SpaceKap’s expansion into the U.S. is no coincidence. The market offers a huge opportunity, with millions of pickup trucks on the road and a service industry ready for a better alternative to the traditional van.
With a unique product, an experienced team, and a clear strategy, SpaceKap proved early that it could succeed in a competitive new market, momentum that carried into the fully operational U.S. division it has today.
